This project aims to enhance understanding of the sources and degradation processes of methyl halides, which impact the ozone layer. By employing advanced isotope analysis, it seeks to clarify the atmospheric budget of these compounds and their environmental effects.
The stratospheric ozone layer is an important shield to protect life on earth.
Most of the short-waved UVB radiation is absorbed which otherwise would cause skin cancer and genetic damage.
Destruction of the ozone layer by halogen radicals was discovered in the 1970s and consequently production of many halogenated compounds was curtailed.
Methyl chloride (CH3Cl) and methyl bromide (CH3Br), important contributors of halogens in the stratosphere, are emitted by both natural and anthropogenic sourc…
